Gladys’s Bio

I have 13+ years of experience caring for elderly and/or disabled persons in their homes. I am compassionate, patient, skilled, and highly reliable.

I have been providing private care to elders with dementia,(including my own Grandparents), mobility issues, diabetes, cancer, visually and/or hearing impaired, and also those who primarily needed companionship.

I can assist with all daily living activities, including: bathing, dressing, hygiene, medication management, (including insulin administration), monitor vitals, healthful meal preparation, light housekeeping and companionship. I can also drive to doctor's appointments, shop and run errands.

I enjoy my work with seniors. I try to engage them, in accordance with their abilities, in physical exercise (if possible). With dementia patients I try to stimulate their minds with simple games, puzzles, and conversation, and any other interests they may have.

From personal experience, I understand the stress family members experience in finding truly caring, competent, and trustworthy assistance for their loved ones..

I can provide excellent references and background check upon request.

I am available for hourly and/or live-in position. Please contact Gladys at (203) 428-8431.
